To continue performing hip resurfacing for all patients is becoming more challenging because … Read the rest

20 year Long-Term Clinical Outcome of Biomet M2a-38 by Dr. Gross 2023

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on February 29, 2024 by Patricia WalterJanuary 30, 2025

Read Complete Study Here:  https://surfacehippy.info/pdf/dr-gross-2023-20year-survivorship-study.pdf

Abstract

Background At the turn of the century, over one‑third of total hip arthroplasties comprised metal‑on‑metal bear‑
ings. As this patient population and their implants age, it is crucial to understand associated late failure modes
and expected long‑term functional outcomes. We report the long‑term results of a large metal‑on‑metal unce‑
mented total hip arthroplasty system with unique design characteristics compared to others that have been reported
with high failure rates.… Read the rest

Is Ceramic on Ceramic Hip Resurfacing the New Gold Standard? by Dr. Gross 2021

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on August 19, 2021 by Patricia WalterAugust 19, 2021

Thomas Gross MD   7/10/2021

Dr. Gross discusses the new ceramic on ceramic hip resurfacing devices and compares them to metal on metal hip resurfacing devises. His summary conclusion:

“I am also involved in CoC HRA development. If these become available in the US I will be involved in early trials. Avoiding the whole tiresome discussion of allergy/toxicity/metallosis would be nice. But if I needed surgery, I would personally choose the proven uncemented MoM HRA which … Read the rest

ReCap™ Magnum™ by Biomet

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 17, 2015 by Patricia WalterMay 8, 2021

The ReCap® Femoral Resurfacing System replaces the diseased surface of the femoral head and is designed to restore the normal anatomy and biomechanical function of the hip joint.

The major advantage of the ReCap® Femoral Resurfacing System is its conservative nature. By avoiding medullary canal intrusion, it preserves valuable femoral bone stock, making it a bone-preserving alternative to total hip arthroplasty. A 2006 study published by Girard, J. et al. in the Journal of Bone
